Jill Trudy Lewis, age 59, born May 21, 1966, was called to her eternal home and into the arms of her Saviour, Jesus Christ on January 7, 2026. Leaving to mourn her beloved husband Joe Lewis and son Joshua of St. Philips; Brothers, Gordon Winsor (Lorraine) Paradise, Roger Winsor (Bonnie) Chamberlains. Sisters, Sharon Winsor St. John’s, Ruth Johnson (Mike) Yorktown, Va USA, Kathy Winsor Maple Ridge, BC, and Jeannie Riley (Scott) Atlanta, Georgia USA.
She is preceded in death by her father Cedric Howard Winsor and mother Caroline Winsor of Paradise. Also, her brothers Lawrence, Robert and Stephen of Paradise; Sisters, Carol Ann Ferrer (Spain) and Joy Keith (Pennsylvania, USA).
Her love for her family was unprecedented, she loved the outdoors and family walks with Jake, the family dog.
Jill’s life reflected the grace and love of her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ through her generous spirit and her love for others. Her life was about helping others in need through a Christ-like spirit and attitude. God gifted her with a tremendous talent on the piano, her greatest musical passion was to play the piano in which the name of Jesus was exalted.
She was such a blessing to her friends and family and everyone who truly knew her knows that earth’s loss is heaven’s gain. Our precious memories will keep her alive in our hearts.
Many thanks to her friends and family who supported her during her final journey, and to family friend Stephanie who provided frequent care for her with great compassion.

My deepest sympathies to Jill’s family and friends. I went to school with Jill from grade 4-12. We spent time together on and off over the years at school . She was a kind and friendly person. She smiled a lot and often talked of her family.. I remember when she lost her brothers on the Ocean Ranger. We were in grade 10 at the time. May God bless you all.
